Who is Mark Trail?

A Silver Age creation born in the pages of Mad #77 in 1963, this Mark Trail stepped into the world courtesy of the legendary Wallace Wood and Gary Belkin — a pedigree that tells you right away you're in the hands of masters of comic satire. Appearing across Mad, Playboy, and even The Calgary Herald Comic Book over a span of sixteen years, he's a fascinatingly well-traveled figure for a character with a slim catalog footprint. Sharing pages with the likes of B.C. and Santa Claus, his appearances carry that gloriously irreverent EC sensibility that defined an era. A rare find for Silver Age enthusiasts who love digging into the wilder, funnier corners of comics history.
